  • Question 1
    1 / -0

    A quadratic equation whose one root is 3 is:

    Solution

    Hint:- Quadratic equation is always two roots. Quadratic equation makes a curve in two axis. Standard form of a quadratic equation.

    ax2+bx+c=0   [a can't be zero]

    Solution:-

    Given one root is 3.

    Put x=3 in all parts

    x2-5x+6=0

    x=3

    32-53+6=0

    9-15+6=0

    0=0

    It means LHS=RHS

    Hence, x2-5x+6=0 is a required equation which has root x=3.

    Note:- Always remember the power of x in the equation and find the root.

    Hence, the correct option is (A).

  • Question 2
    1 / -0

    The two numbers whose sum is 27 and their product is 182 are:

    Solution

    Hint:- Product is the multiplication of two numbers and sum is the addition of two numbers.

    Solution:-

    Given, the sum of the two numbers is 27.

    Product of these two numbers is 182.

    Let x be the one number and the second one is 27-x.

    So, x27-x=182

    27x-x2=182

    x2-27x+182=0

    It is a quadratic equation.

    Now, 

    x2-14+13x+182=0

    x2-14x-13x+182=0

    xx-14-13x-14=0

    x-13x-14

    If x-13=0

    x=13

    If x-14=0

    x=14

    Hence, the two numbers are 13 and 14.

    Note:- Crosscheck,

    13+14=27  (Sum)

    13×14=182  (Product)

    Hence, the correct option is (B).

  • Question 3
    1 / -0

    The quadratic equation whose roots are 7 + 3 and 7  3 is:

    Solution

    Hint:- Remember the general form of a quadratic equation.

    x2-M+Nx-MN=0

    Here, M and N are the roots of the equation.

    a+ba-b=a2-b2

    Solution:-

    Given the roots of a quadratic equation.

    Let one root M=7+3

    And 2nd one is N=7-3

    We know the general form of quadratic equation,

    x2-M+Nx+MN=0

    Put the value of M and N and solve them. We get a quadratic equation.

    x2-7+3+7-3x+7+3×7-3=0

    x2-14x+49-3=0

    If a+ba-b i.e., it's equal to a2-b2.

    So the quadratic equation is x2-14x-46=0

    Note:- Addition of roots is put with b and multiplication with c.

    ax2+bx+c=0

    Hence, the correct option is (A).

  • Question 4
    1 / -0

    The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 6m more than twice the shortest side. The third side is 2m less than the hypotenuse. The representation of the above situation in the form of a quadratic equation is:

    Solution

    Hint:- Right-angle means 90°

    AB2+BC2=AC2  (Pythagoras theorem)

    Solution:-

    Let the shortest side is x.

    Hypotenuse is 6 more than twice of shortest side i.e., 2x+6

    The third side is 2 meters less than the hypotenuse i.e., 2x+6-2

    2x+4


    It is a right-angle triangle so apply Pythagoras theorem,

    AB2+BC2=AC2

    2x+42+x2=2x+62

    Note:- Apply Pythagoras theorem carefully.

    Hence, the correct option is (A).

  • Question 5

    Solution

    Hint:- Both are simple quadratic equation so find the roots and compare.

    Solution:-

    Given two quadratic equation,

    2x2+x-6=0...(1)

    x2-3x-10=0...(2)

    Take equation (1) and find roots,

    2x2+4x-3x-6=0

    2xx+2-3x+2=0

    2x-3x+2=0

    So roots are 32 and -2.

    Take equation (2),

    x2-5x+2x-10=0

    xx-5+2x-5=0

    x-5x+2=0

    Roots are 5 and -2.

    -2 are common.

    Note:- Solve quadratic equation carefully.

    Hence, the correct option is (D).

    The product of two consecutive integers is 240. The quadratic representation of the above situation is:

    Solution

    Hint:- Two consecutive integers mean a and a+1 and product is aa+1=?

    Solution:-

    Given the product of two consecutive integers is 240.

    Let integer is X and X+1.

    So the product is XX+1=240

    Note:- Consecutive means that just next.

    Hence, the correct option is (B).

  • Question 7
    1 / -0

    One of the roots of the quadratic equation a2x2  3abx + 2b2 = 0 is:

    Solution

    Solution:- 

    Given, equation a2x2-3abx+2b2=0

    Break the equation and we get,

    a2x2-2abx-abx+2b2=0

    axax-2b-bax-2b=0

    ax-bax-2b=0

    If ax-b=0

    x=ba

    If ax-2b=0

    x=2ba

    So the roots are ba and 2ba.

    Note:- Put x=2ba in a given equation and solve we get LHS=RHS.

    Hence, the correct option is (B).

  • Question 8
    1 / -0

    If p =  7 and q = 12 and x2 + px + q = 0, then the value of ‘x’ is:

    Solution

    Hint:- In a quadratic equation,

    ax2+bx+c=0

    We know the value of a, b, c so easily find the value of x and x has two roots means two value.

    Solution:- Given, x2+px+q=0...(1)

    And p=-7, q=12

    Put p and q value in equation (1) and solve,

    x2-7x+12=0

    x2-4+3x+12=0

    x2-4x-3x+12=0

    Which gives x-3x-4

    If x-3=0

    x=3

    And x-4=0

    x=4

    So the roots of a quadratic equation are 3 and 4.

    -x2+3x2-3x+1=0

    2x2-3x+1=0

    Check by option (B),

    x2+2x+1=4-x2+3

    x2+2x+1=16+x2+8x+3

    cx+18=0

    Not a quadratic equation because degree =2.

    Check by option (C),

    k+1x2+32x-5=0,  k=-1

  • Question 10
    1 / -0

    The roots of a quadratic equation x2 − 4px + 4p2−q2 = 0 are:

    Solution

    Hint:- Use a2-b2=a+ba-b

    Solution:-

    Given, x2-4px+4p2-q2=0

    We know that a-b2=a2+b2-2ab

    Apply the following rule in the first term we get,

    x-2p2-q2=0

    We know, 

    a2-b2=a+ba-b

    So,

    x-20+qx-2p-q=0

    If x-2p+q=0

    x=2p-q

    If x-2p-q=0

    x=2p+q

    So the roots are 2p-q and 2p+q.

    Note:- Always remember the quadratic equation has two roots.

    Hence, the correct option is (D).

  • Question 11
    1 / -0

    If the sum of a number and its reciprocal is 2½, then the numbers are:

    Solution

    Hint:- If we have a number a so it's reciprocal is 1a.

    Solution:-

    Let the number is x and its reciprocal is 1x.

    Given, x+1x=2

    x2+1x=2

    x2-2x+1=0

    It is a quadratic equation so two roots is possible.

    x2-x-x+1=0

    xx-1-1x-1=0

    x-1x-1=0

    If x-1=0

    x=1

    If x-1=0

    x=1

    x+x=1+1=2 (Sum)

    And reciprocal is 12

    Note:- In these type of question always try to obtain a quadratic equation and solve.

    Hence, the correct option is (C).

  • Question 12

    And x=2

    Put x=2 in the equation,

    3x2-px-2=0

    322-p2-2=0

    12-2p-2=0

    10=2p

    p=5

    Note:- If we cross-check the equation then put in equation p=5 in the given equation and we get two root's and one of them is x=2.

    Hence, the correct option is (B).

  • Question 13
    1 / -0

    The sum of two numbers is 17 and the sum of their reciprocals is 1762. The quadratic representation of the above situation is:

    Solution

    Hint:- If x is a variable or number then its reciprocal is 1x.

    Solution:- Given the sum of two numbers is 17 and sum of their reciprocal is 1762.

    Let one number is x

    Then second number is 17-x

    Because 17 is the product of two numbers.

    So the reciprocal is,

    1x and 117-x

    Now given the sum of these reciprocals is 1762. So,

    1x+117-x=1762...(1)

    Note:- If we solve equation (1) further then we find its degree is 2. Then, it is also a quadratic equation.

    Hence, the correct option is (B).

  • Question 14
    1 / -0

    Which of the following is not a quadratic equation?


    Solution

    Hint:- Quadratic equation is a 2-degree equation,

    ax2+bx+c=0

    Solution:-

    To find the quadratic equation in given options.

    By option (A),

    2x+32+x2=3x2-5x

    2x2+3+26x+x2=3x2-5x

    That gives,

    26x+5x+3=0

    Not a quadratic equation because the maximum power of x is 1.

    Note:- Degree of a quadratic equation is 2.

    Hence, the correct option is (A).

  • Question 15
    1 / -0

    5x2 + 8x + 4 = 2x2 + 4x + 6 is a:

    Solution

    Hint:- We know that degree of a quadratic equation is 2 and two roots.

    General form of a quadratic equation.

    ax2+bx+c=0

    Solution:-

    Given equation, 5x2+8x+4=2x2+4x+6

    It is an equation where the degree is 2.

    Now,

    5x2-2x2+8x-4x+4-6=0

    3x2+4x-2=0

    This equation represents the quadratic equation because the degree is two 2.

    Note:- Always remember the degree of a quadratic equation is 2.

    Hence, the correct option is (C).
